The Nintendo chicks were definitely spokesmodels but your analysis of how to tell booth babes from developer chicks is way off- some of the hottest women at the con were developers. Just in the CA group alone (where I was volunteering again) we had at least 10 really sexy girls, most of whom could have rocked the short skirt/knee-boot look a la the booth babes.

Actually talk to the women you see around the show and you'll find a surprising number of hot developers (I was surprised) ;p
